When To Get 2008 Land Rover LR2 Suspension Service

During the first few years you had your 2008 Land Rover LR2, the ride was probably so smooth that you didn’t even think about it! Now, however, things are starting to feel a little rough. Maybe your LR2 bounces, drifts to one side, or makes noise whenever you turn or drive over a speed bump. The first sign of problems is a good time to bring your 2008 Land Rover LR2 in for steering and suspension repairs. We'll figure out what needs to be taken care of, if anything.

The technicians at Firestone Complete Auto Care will start with a suspension inspection to diagnose your vehicle. We’ll check the front and rear suspension, shocks, coil springs, CV joints and axles, bushings, struts, chassis, wheel hub bearings, and power steering system parts. We'll get to the root of the problem and, if your LR2 suspension system needs repair, we'll explain all of your options and the potential cost. If your Land Rover LR2’s suspension or steering system components need to be replaced due to wear and tear, we may also recommend a wheel alignment since replacing steering and suspension parts can change existing wheel angles and ride height.

Land Rover LR2 Suspension Shocks or Strut Replacement

Your 2008 Land Rover LR2’s suspension system relies on its shocks and struts to function properly. They contribute to your car’s handling, keeping it from bottoming out when the road gets bumpy. Struts support the structure of the suspension and shocks keep the car from bouncing too much. These components work together to limit vibration and keep your Land Rover up off the ground. However, there’s no set schedule for when you should replace your LR2’s shocks and struts since many things can influence the wear rate and severity of the wear. Bouncing, side-to-side swaying, or rocking back and forth can all point to issues with your Land Rover LR2 shocks and struts. It’s a good idea to have your 2008 Land Rover LR2’s shocks and struts regularly checked out by a certified auto technician. So, avoid a bumpy ride.

2008 LR2 Steering & Suspension Questions

  • What role do tire pressure and tread depth play in my Land Rover's suspension? Proper tire care can reduce strain on the suspension system, and also alert you to the need for new tires. Uneven tire wear is one sign of steering and suspension system problems, but it can also contribute to more.
  • Are routine tire rotations and wheel alignments important for my Land Rover LR2? Alignment and rotation seem like minor services, but they have a major impact on your vehicle. Such services help ensure that the right amount of pressure is being applied to your tires and that your tires come into contact with the road as they should.
  • When should I have my Land Rover LR2 power steering fluid checked? Get your power steering fluid check out when you get an oil change or every couple of months. If your LR2’s power steering fluid is low, we can fill it per Land Rover's recommendations to help your suspension perform smoothly.
  • Why is my Land Rover LR2 bouncing so much? If your shocks or struts are in bad shape, they can’t dampen road bumps like they should. This can cause your LR2 to bounce more than usual.
  • Why does my LR2 front end dip forward when I brake? The forward momentum and weight transfer to the front wheels during braking can cause your LR2's front end to dip forward. A damaged or faulty suspension system may fail to distribute the weight and force effectively, causing the front end to dip even more.
  • How can I tell if the shocks on my Land Rover LR2 are bad? If your LR2 shock absorbers are worn out, they won’t be able to properly dampen road bumps. You might experience a bouncy or unstable ride, especially over bumps or rough roads. Your LR2 might also feel like it sways or rolls as you turn.
